Great Concept, Shoddy Workmanship
Reviewer:
Albert T.
Received this bag as a gift and was really excited to use it. On the 5th day of using it several of the zipper teeth fell out and the stitching came undone.
For what could be a 5-star product, I am giving it 2 stars. One star for the design and one star for Scuba.com and Akona being willing to repair/replace at no cost.
My location does not lend itself to a quick, inexpensive exchange so I am going to repair the bag myself and chalk it up to experience.

Love this bag! Took it on a trip to Bonaire and it was very helpful. I could put my regulator and mask in padded end.
My bcd,Fins,booties and wet suit all fit in the mesh bag.
Not to bad carrying it. Shoulder strap would be helpful. We purchased 2 and one the zipper pull tab broke fast but easy to fix. Im thinking these would be wonderful Christmas gifts for a few of our diving friends.

Very pleased with this bag
Reviewer:

The Akona bag has made carrying my gear around so much easier. It can hold my BCD, fins, mask, snorkel and wetsuit without an issue. The regulator pocket is very secure. And, it dries easily and uses very little room when stored. I recommend this bag to anyone.

This bag holds all my gear easily, and also folds up for easy transport during travel. It has clever compartments, and is easy to carry. I love the regulator pouch, which protects the reg from external damage. It is not a heavy-duty travel bag that can be checked in a plane cargo hold, but it is ideal once one arrives at the holiday/diving destination.

Akona Collapsing Duffel does double duty
Reviewer:
Michael Smolensky
I purchased this product for the main reason that it serves as a great boat dive gear bag (mesh) while having a more protective compartment for the regulator and computer keeping it safe from dirt and sand etc. and being padded is a big plus when I use this bag as part of my carry on baggage. This is even better because it fits into the Akona carry on roller bag which has an front compartment for storing the collapsing duffel/Regulator bag. This is important to me because consolidating when traveling is always beneficial.

This bag seems like it will do the job. It has plenty of room for my equipment and the padded end area for by regulator and computer is nice, This is a good bag for using on the boat although you would need a different bag for air travel. Better priced then other bags.

I used this bag on a trip to Cozumel. I loved the fact that this bag collapsed down to fit in my luggage and then was great on the boat. I am very pleased with the quality of the bag. I only wish it had a shoulder strap.
